Chapter 344: Evolved Undead Creatures
More than ten days have passed in the blink of an eye, and in these ten days, the mercenaries have visited Moramachi Town, and Alice asserts that the current situation is very dangerous, and the lack of new mercenaries has proved that the Hengduan Valley has become a dead land, and the mercenaries cannot pass through the vast area controlled by countless undead creatures, and Moramachi Town has become an island in the true sense of the word. [No pop-up novel network]
Alice does have the potential to be a crow's mouth, and as soon as she said this, Blawi, the deputy head of the magic group, hurried in to report that a large number of undead had appeared around.
Every once in a while, the magicians of the magic group will collectively release the eye of the sky, and the wide field of vision is enough to comb through the surrounding area for dozens of miles, if it is a sporadic undead creature that breaks into the vicinity, they may not be able to appear, but it is difficult for a large group of undead creatures to evade their observation.
Anfei took Suzanne and Alice to the mage tower as soon as possible, and Chris was talking to Azeraz in a low voice, when he saw Anfei coming, Chris showed joy and exclaimed, "Anfei came to see this, it's too weird!"
Beside Chris, several magicians were releasing the Eye of the Sky, scanning different scenes, one of the Eyes of the Sky was firmly locked on a few zombies, and the appearance of those zombies was indeed very strange, ordinary zombies were covered with a layer of rotten flesh, but the skin on their bodies was very intact, and the muscles looked strong, and there was a layer of bronzed luster, no matter what gender was, they were not wearing an inch on their bodies, and what was even more shocking was that they seemed to be talking to something in a whisper. Undead creatures are known to have lost the ability to speak. Even if they can communicate with each other, it is out of a spiritual level, a phenomenon that subverts the definition of undead biologically.
"How many undead creatures are there?" asked Anfei softly.
"About three thousand. Chris replied quickly.
This is the strength of the magic group, as long as the traces of the enemy are visible, the magicians of the magic group can immediately gather together to find out the number and direction of the enemy as quickly as possible, and can also find the enemy's command center. Of course, this is only a tactical advantage, no matter how powerful the Sky Eye is, it will not be able to see through the strategic trap, otherwise the Dark Moon Magic Legion of the Ilison Empire will not be surrounded by groups.
"They're talking?" Suzanne couldn't help but ask. She couldn't believe her eyes.
"Yes, these zombies seem to have ...... Some kind of evolutionary ability. Chris smiled bitterly: "Anfei is very bad, no matter how difficult the previous war of the undead was, we always had the advantage in the end, and that was because we took advantage of the arrogance of the necromancer and the stupidity of the undead creatures, if they can also have intelligence, it is too bad for us." ”
"Your Excellency. Look!" Azeraz cried out suddenly.
The zombies seemed to have reached a consensus, and then in the other eye of the sky, a group of zombies numbering about three hundred had already taken the main road, slowly pressing in the direction of Moramachi Town.
A thought flashed through everyone's minds, and An Fei and Alice turned their heads in unison to focus on one person. Both of them are very sensible and not only good at understanding others. He is better at dissecting himself, and from An Fei's point of view, he is comfortable dealing with small-scale battles. But it is difficult to say about large-scale conflicts, he has no similar experience, and Alice knows nothing about it.
"Kumoro Gosha, tell me what we should do?" Anfei said softly.
Kumoro Gosha hesitated. However, he only hesitated for a moment, and finally strode towards here.
At that moment, the zombies' movements suddenly accelerated. Running straight towards Moramachi Town, An Fei and the others had already faintly heard the howls of the zombies.
"I'm going to the top of the Mage Tower!" Chris said in a hurry, then quickly unleashed the levitation technique.
"Wait a minute, sir!" called Kumorogosha.
"What's the matter?"
"Your Excellency, you only need to order a dozen magicians to release magic interceptions. ”
"Why?" asked Chris, surprised.
"Those zombies are just testing our strength, and if the strength of our magic group is exposed from the beginning, it will be very disadvantageous to us. ”
"But if you let those zombies rush over......"
"My lord, this is the casualties of war, and they can't be avoided at all!" Kumoro Gosha interrupted Chris, "Any unrealistic idea will cause us more casualties!"
Chris couldn't help but look at Anfei, and Anfei said without hesitation: "Listen to him!"
"Who are the people who are stationed there?" asked Kumoragosha.
"It's Simpera's 6th Regiment. ”
"If it's Simpera...... I think they can hold up for a long time. Kumarosa said expressionlessly.
During the conversation, the zombies in the Eye of the Sky had already approached the first row of fences, and their figures were very agile, all like monkeys
Go. Himpella appeared above the fence, commanding the mercenaries to poke with a long down, if it was just a level of fighting, Himpella's sixth regiment would have no problem guarding for a few days, but unfortunately the group of zombies with a slightly different shape lagging behind suddenly sped up, although a row of magic falling from the sky brought them a certain amount of trouble, but the number of that group of zombies was disproportionate to the coverage of magic, and soon the group of zombies pounced under the fence.
The thickness of the fence reached about a meter, and it was very strong, almost all of them were made of giant logs, which was also a bully for the undead creatures, and they would not use fire magic, as if there was a planned exercise, and the group of zombies opened their big foul mouths neatly, and a cloud of pus sprayed onto the fence, and then they stretched out their sharp claws and grabbed at the fence.
The perspective of the eye in the sky is vertically downward, and it is impossible to see what changes have occurred in the fence, but soon everyone understands that a zombie has passed through the fence and appears inside the defense line, and Simpera's reaction is very fast, and the sword jumps down from the fence more than 20 meters high, and the giant sword swings down, splitting the zombie's diagonal shoulder strap back into two pieces.
One zombie after another broke into the defense line, and in the distance, there was a group of zombies with a number of about four hundred, rushing over, and Himpella blocked left and right, and after all, he couldn't change the overall situation of the festering, so he had to send out a signal for help, and ordered the mercenaries to abandon the fence and fight and retreat.
An Fei looked at the dove Morogosha and shook his head, still expressionless, and Bravi whispered to Susanna: "That guy doesn't have a grudge against Simpera, right?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Suzanne glared at Blawy hurriedly.
There are more and more zombies passing through the defense line, and from time to time there are backward mercenaries who are torn to pieces by the zombies, Chris has controlled his emotions, and there are always only sporadic large fireballs or lightning spells falling, for the zombies with a total number of hundreds, this kind of attack can only be regarded as tickling them, and their attacks are like bamboos, and Himpella has to abandon the camp and retreat to the town to barely gain a foothold.
"Is there really no problem with Gomorogosha?" this time it was Alice who couldn't help it.
"How many undead creatures are there in the valley, three thousand, thirty thousand, or three hundred thousand? This kind of battle is only a small conflict for us, and it will be much more difficult in the future than it is now. Kumarogosha's attitude was very respectful.
"You said that Hampella can hold out for a long time!" Alice is not easily convinced.
"I didn't expect those zombies to be able to use magic. ”
"We have seen this kind of zombie before, they should be ordinary zombies, and if you kill them, the combat effectiveness of other zombies will be greatly affected. Brave said.
"They're not the ones who can talk to each other, they're the real leaders. Kumoro Gosha shook his head slightly: "Before the official battle explosion, we need to make an evaluation of their intelligence, in fact, I don't believe how smart they are, human children of a few years old can also speak, but intelligence cannot be compared with adult * people." ”
"You can make an assessment of their intelligence if you wait so long?" Alice asked, frowning, in fact, she was not making things difficult, but helping Kumorogosha know what happened to Kumorogosa, she was very sympathetic to Kumoragosa as much as she was sympathetic to herself, so she didn't want to see Kumorogosha be suspected by others.
"Of course, they must have a follow-up deployment, I ......," Kumorokosha said, and suddenly froze as a group of zombies appeared on the road in the eye of the sky, surging towards Moramachi like a tide. According to the report of the magic group, the total number of zombies is about three thousand, and these plus the zombies that have rushed into the defense line, all the zombies should have appeared.
"Lord Bravi, can you ask the magic group to search in other directions to see if there are any undead creatures?" said Kumarogosha hurriedly.
"Yes!" Brave nodded.
There were almost forty magicians left under the mage tower, and under Bravi's order, they released the Sky Eye one after another, and as a result, they immediately came out, and there was no trace of undead creatures in other directions except for the defensive ground of the Sixth Regiment.
"There is no strategy, no plan, not even the simplest sound...... "Kumaro Gosha smiled wryly, "It seems that I have to admit that I still overestimate them." ”
"So we can start fighting back?"
Kumorogosa hesitated for a moment and nodded.
